INCREDIBLE CUBAN BREAD



Incredible Cuban Bread image

This is a slight adaption of a recipe from Amy Dacyczyn's "The Complete Tightwad Gazette." We lived on this bread when my son was little as we could not afford to buy regular sliced bread. We often make 12 rolls instead of the 2 loaves. This is wonderful bread!

Categories     Yeast Breads

Time 1h15m

Yield 2 loaves

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 cups whole wheat flour
2 -4 cups white flour
2 tablespoons yeast
2 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon salt
2 cups hot water (120-130 degrees)

Steps:

  • Mix the 2 cups whole wheat and 2 cups of the white flour together.
  • Add the yeast, the sugar, and the salt.
  • Pour in the hot water and beat for 100 strokes (or 3 minutes with a mixer).

  • Knead it for 8 minutes.
  • Put the dough in a metal bowl that you have sprayed with cooking spray.
  • Cover it with a damp towel.
  • Let it rise for 15 minutes.
  • Punch it down.
  • Divide it into 2 pieces.
  • Shape each piece into a round loaf and put them on a baking sheet that you have sprayed with cooking spray.
  • Cut an x in the top of each loaf.
  • If you want you can brush the top with water and put sesame seeds or poppy seeds on top.
  • Put the pan on the middle rack of a cold oven.
  • Put a pan of boiling water on the bottom shelf.
  • Heat the oven to 400 degrees.
  • Bake the bread for 40-50 minutes or until it is deep golden brown.
  • **Ifyou want to use your food processor, put all the dry into the bowl.
  • Turn it on and slowly add the water until the dough forms a ball.
  • Let it spin 20 times.

9 FRUGAL TIPS LEARNED FROM THE TIGHTWAD GAZETTE [STILL ...

From moneytamer.com
Estimated Reading Time 8 mins
  • Don’t Try to Keep up with the Joneses. The creation of a consumer-driven society has created an unsustainable lifestyle. Strategic marketing has led you to believe that a particular product can make you happy.
  • Cooking from Scratch Saves a Ton of Money. Before big grocery outlets, we made our goods from scratch. We have gotten lazy over time and have forgotten that baking and cooking are an option.
  • Reduce, Reuse, Recycle. A simple practice taught in Tightwad Gazette is that you shouldn’t throw something out because you’re tired of it or because it’s broken.
  • Being Frugal In Moderation Is Good. The term “frugal” typically gets a negative connotation. But it shouldn’t be mistaken for being cheap or stingy. Here are the main differences between being frugal vs cheap.
  • Stock Up When There’s A Sale. I think a misconception about this rule is that you should buy everything that’s on sale and nothing at the full retail price.
  • Finding an Easy ‘Signature Dish’ This day and age provides you with convenient food services, but these come at a hefty cost and aren’t all that good for you either. ‘
  • Buy Quality Over Quantity. A fantastic tip that’s highlighted in the Tightwad Gazette is that buying high-quality staple pieces is going to last and save you money in the long run.
  • Try DIY Before You Buy. Many references are made about doing things yourself in Tightwad Gazette. There are mentions in the book on how to fix things, create something yourself, and build stuff without needing to hire someone.
  • Make Your Own Cleaning Supplies. Cleaning products are expensive – It’s that simple. I really wish everyone would implement this tip into their lives to be more eco-friendly while saving money.


5 TOP THINGS I LEARNED ABOUT FRUGALITY FROM AMY DACYCZYN’S ...

From twofrugalfairfielders.com
Estimated Reading Time 3 mins
  • How to Avoid Feeling Deprived (page 230-232 Tightwad Gazette 1) In this passage, Amy discusses how to avoid feeling bad about living frugally.
  • Three Steps to a Frito-Free Child (page 234 Tightwad Gazette II) I learned that when kids ask why we don’t have “good food” like their friends, they really mean “why don’t we have packaged foods.”
  • Create a Dinner Casserole (page 625, Tightwad Gazette Compedium) Anyone who throws out leftovers is nuts. I learned that from Amy’s post on casseroles.
  • Wealth, Poverty, and Frugality (page 272, Tightwad Gazette II) I learned never, ever assume frugal people are poor. Amy discusses why we still think that frugality has to do with being “poor” and that wealth and frugality are mutually exclusive terms in most people’s minds.
  • The Used Clothing Filing System (page 270-271, Tightwad Gazette I) Thanks to this discussion, I had the best system of hand-me-downs going in my attic for my two kids.
